It seems like the problem was with my device.hints file - I had deleted
all the kbd/sc/vga stuff out of there, assuming that they weren't needed
since they are on the pci bus.  It turns out that I can only boot when I
add the syscons stuff back in there.  And then, they want to attach to
the ISA bus instead of the PCI bus:

sc0: <System console> on isa0
sc0: VGA <16 virtual consoles, flags=0x200>
vga0: <Generic ISA VGA> at port 0x3c0-0x3df iomem 0xa0000-0xbffff on isa0
atkbdc0: <Keyboard controller (i8042)> at port 0x60,0x64 irq 1 on isa0
atkbd0: <AT Keyboard> flags 0x1 irq 1 on atkbdc0
kbd0 at atkbd0

Any particular reason these devices want to attach to the ISA instead of
the PCI bus?  Or, are they REALLY attaching to the PCI bus, and thinking
they're attaching to the ISA bus?  I have a Pentium MoBo (Asus SP 97-V),
so they really ought to be on pci0 instead of isa0.

So, the syscons/vga/atkbd stuff will not work without leaving them
un-modified in device.hints as they originally appear in
GENERIC.hints.  Attached is my device.hints and dmesg.out.
